Interesting Experiments

Concentrating temperature of tn
human skin have for some time beef
made in the laboratory of Professor A
Kunkel, in Wurzburg. The tempera
ture of the skin of the face in mel
of from 20 to 80 years of age, varied
from 900 degrees to 80 degrees Gel,
sius. making an approximate averag.
OF 81 degrees. The skin of the more
exposed parts of the body, such as the
tip of the nose and the ear-lappets.
showed lesser warmth, In many in.
stances running as low as "a and in
some even to 22 degrees Celsius. The
skin covering the muscular portions OF
the body is warmer than that above
the bones and sinews; contraction of
the muscles increased the temperature
of the surface by 0 8 degrees, and even
more. The decrease OF warmth from
the skin to the outer covering at a
room temperature of 174 degrees, was
as follows: On the skin 81 Q degrees.
on the linen shirt 2S.2 degrees, on the
vest "a 2 degrees, ON the coat 90 8 de.
grees. The highest temperature was
found with men in the vigor of age
AS singular fact the experimcntalists
state that children otherwise in perfect
health, showed much smaller degree
of surface temperature-25 to 90 de-
gresham adults, rates at which the
latter exhibited symptoms of discom-
fort and chilliness.

Chamber Journal gives somo 4,
!erestlng stories Of smugglors and
.neir methods. A story, which lately
became public, shows how well N,
modern diamond smugglers had laid
TO heart Poe's precepts. "Please r.
hold my baby whilst nv husband

be quite good II you will shake hi,

officer who was waiting to look ovei

ed, shaking the rattle to the great de.
light OF the little one. The rattle In
question, which, fastened to ribbon.
was tied to the child's waist. was All,
ed with gems of great value, a mode O,
smuggling that at the time was tor
simple for detection. A clever female.
attired in the costume of n Sister nj
Mercy, was passed over by the officers
because she had no luggage worth ex-
aiming. She possessed, however, a
hne string of beads, which, with down.
cast eyes, she kept telling. Safe on
land, she was afiectionately welcomed
py two persons dressed In costume
similar to her own. Need II be told
that she was smuggler, and that her
beads were 30 constructed that each
held diamond weighing seven or
eight carats? Another ingenious per-
son hit upon the plan of placing a few
precious stones in q toy Kaleidoscope,
which had been given 10 child. who
carried It ashore In safety. A number
OF homing pigeons kept In cages, and
purchased at village In Belgium and
brought to the United States by way of
Paris and Havre, also played a profit
able part, each of the pigeons being
freighted with cargo of exquisite
gems, concealed in quilts, and care
fully fastened to the message bearing
dove. An extensive system of dia.
mond smuggling was at one time car
ried on from Canadian ground by the
aid Of homing pigeons. The discovery
OF this Illicit trade was made acct
dentally by farmer, who happened
to shoot one Of the birds, and on ex-
aiming 1t found that there was fas-
tened to its leg q quill containing
number of diamonds! A clue being
obtained, the local habitation of the
pigeon proprietors was discovered and
their mode of business put an end to.
The scheme, stated simply, was to fiy
every week or ten days q flock of a
dozen or fifteen pigeons, each carrying
about half dozen gems. AS the duty
on diamonds amounts to ten per cent
the trouble taken to smuggle these
gems into the United States does not
seem 30 very remarkable. The value
OF the precious stones honestly i'm
ported into the States is between eight
and nine million dollars per annum.
and 1t has been calculated that gems
To- half that sum escape payment of
duty.

A New Danger.

DANvILLE. H., Feb. 23.-The hot.
water heater in chair car on the Wa
bash road exploded yesterday. The
windows wero blown out, both ends OF
the car shattered, and the entire struc.
ture injured. The next car received
some OF the shock, several windows
being broken. at the time the car was
filled with sleeping passeDgere, who
were thrown into confusion about the
floor. Some were seriously injured by
broken glass and pieces OF iron and
wood, but fortunately no one received
injuries that are likely to prove fatal.
Almost before the train could he
stopped and the passengers rescued
from the predicament the car caught
IRE from the lamps which had been
shattered and from the FIRE under the
heater, and was almost entirely de.
stroyed Enough time was afforded,
however, for tho pass myers to gather
their scattered effects and sacnre 3
safer place. Had the train been going
between stations ct the usual rate Of
speed there might have been ANOTHER
C0rrible holocaust.

Tho Longest TunneI In the World.

An engineering work that has taken
over century 70 construct can hardly
TAIL to offer some points Of interest in
its history, and illustrate the march of
events during the years of its progress.
An instance of this kind is to be found
in tunnel not long since completed,
but which was commenced over a
hundred years ago. This tunnel, or
adit, as 1t should be more strictly
termed, Is at Schemnitz, in Hungary.
It's construction was agreed upon in
1852, the object being to carry off the
water from the Schemnitz mines to the
lowest part of the Gran Valley. The
work is now complete, and according
to the Bauzeitung fur Ungarn, it forms
the long st tunnel In the world, being
1927 miles long, or about one mile
longer than st. GOthsrd, and % miles
longer than Mont Cents. The height
is . n. 10 in. and the breadth 8 #. 3 in.
This tunnel, which has taken so long
in making, has cost very nearly mil
lion sterling. but the money appears to
have been well spent; at least the pres
ent generation has no reason to grum-
bic, for the saving from being able to
do away with water raising appliances
amounts to Els, 900 year. There is
one further point, however, worth no.
tice, for. ii we have the advantage of
our great grandfathers in the matter of
mechanical appliances, they certainly
were better off in the price of labor
The original contract for the tunnel,
made in 1882, was that it should be
completed in thirty years and should
cost 81 per yard run. For eleven
years the work was done at this price.
but the French Revolution enhanced
the cost of labor and material to such
an extent that for thirty years little
progress was made. For ten wears
following much progress was made
and then the work dropped for twenty
years more until the water threatened
% drown the mines out altogether
Finally the tunnel was completed in
1878, the remaining part costing e22 a
yard, or more than three times as much
ID the original contract rate.
